Chapter342
She playfully wrapped her arms around the man’s neck, and Winford couldn’t resist. He held her waist, leaned down, and kissed her on the lips. “Alright, with a bonus.”
Graham laughed even more sincerely, “Thank you, Mr. Winford!”
Winford did not respond to his words, his full attention focused on his wife in his arms, with a deep affection and tenderness in his eyes that could almost drown a person.
Don’t say it’s just a small bonus, in that moment just now, she wanted his life, he would probably agree.
Lenora came over in the evening, with a furrowed brow and a distracted. look.
“What’s wrong?” Ophelia asked her.
Lenora hesitated for a moment and then recounted the events that had happened to the Whitaker family. She then said, “Ophelia, I always felt like the incident with the ginseng… it was intentional.”
What she said was Isabelle.
Both Mom and Grandma believed Isabelle’s words, but she didn’t believe them.
Ophelia raised an eyebrow, neither admitting nor denying directly, but instead asked, “Why do you think so?”
Lenora said, “I always felt like she just wanted to take credit for your ginseng, not really caring about grandfather’s health. Otherwise, why
wouldn’t she inform the rest of the family?”
“If grandpa really needed that ginseng, I would have told my parents. Even if they knew it was from you, they would have found a way to help or compensate you, or even spend money to buy it for you, just to make sure grandpa could use that ginseng.
“But she didn’t say anything and in front of my grandparents and my parents, she claimed that the ginseng was obtained through great efforts and pleas to others. Who wouldn’t be grateful after hearing that? It was clear that what she wanted was this reputation!”
If Graham hadn’t gone, our whole family would have been kept in the dark, and grandparents wouldn’t have known how long they should be grateful to her!
Lenora focused and analyzed with sound reasoning.
From a young age, she had always had some aversion towards Isabelle because she only liked Ophelia and felt that Isabelle took everything away from her.
But Isabelle was truly excellent and had impeccable conduct, so she could only suppress the prejudice in her heart.
Until today, she vaguely caught a glimpse – Isabelle, is not as noble and perfect as she appears!
Ophelia listened to Lenora’s analysis and felt both relieved and satisfied.
Although Nora was naive, she was still very intelligent!
Lenora’s eyes lit up with admiration as she looked at Ophelia, almost like a kindergartener, she held her head high and puffed out her chest.
Then, it fell again, “But the family believed her, they never doubted her words…”

Ophelia was quite calm and she smiled reassuringly, saying, “Nora, don’t worry about me. The things that belong to me, no one can take away. I will eventually reclaim them, one by one! Don’t you believe in me?”
There was a hint of indifference in the tone, along with a strong sense of confidence, which unconsciously made people feel convinced, and faintly, there seemed to be a shadow of Winford.
Lenora was infected and nodded heavily, “Hmm, Ophelia, I believe you!”
Ophelia chuckled and pulled her towards the restaurant, “Alright, let’s go, let’s have a meal!”
After having dinner, we chatted for a while, and it was already getting late
Ophelia asked Lenora to stay overnight, but Lenora shook her head and said. “No. my mom… she didn’t allow me to associate with you.”
